Quoting from the article:
In his four years in office, Donald Trump rolled back essentially every existing federal policy to limit climate change. The picture under the Biden Administration has been a dramatic reversal, enacting lots of environmental protections and starting to spend tens of billions of dollars. By one count, Biden has overturned more than two dozen of Trump actions affecting the fossil fuel industry.
And we could see yet another U-turn in climate policy after the November election. Trump recently told Big Oil executives over dinner that they should give him $1 billion in campaign donations because he planned to immediately reverse climate regulations, the New York Times and Washington Post both reported.
This post from UC Berkeley and UCLA Law puts together the pieces by listing the 30 most consequential Biden actions, by date and subject matter. It includes only completed actions, not proposed regulations. The earliest action covered is Biden’s rejoining the Paris Agreement; the most recent is a burst of final actions taken around Earth Day 2024.
